I had my first day this month over 2000 calories yesterday. I also broke my no-sweets-on-weekdays rule.
Although I suppose it is probably a record that I went almost an entire month without breaking 2000 calories. Unfortunately my cals haven't been low enough to lose a single pound this month. :sigh: Oh well, at least my clothes fit.
